On Wednesday morning, we told the girls that we were taking them to a surprise!
They had NO idea where we were going or that we were staying overnight!
They knew we needed to go shoe shopping for basketball
shoes for Aubrey and beyond that - they were clueless!
VERY excited for our surprise adventure!
The girls got a little spoiled at the Tanger Outlets first!
They found these MLP toys at Toys R Us!
I don't think they had ever seen so many toys in their life!
waiting at Old Navy
Avery was excited to find some new winter gloves
at Columbia outlet.
When they found out that mom had packed their bags
with clothes, jammies, and swimsuits - they FREAKED!
Aubrey screamed a LOT!
(I have it all on video)
We stayed here for the night!
EXCITED for bunk beds!!!
This girl love, loved it!
(even though it was SO COLD)
She probably climbed over these lilypads 30 times!
Avery didn't last nearly as long and we don't blame her - brrrrrrr!
warming up in our towels
We decided fast food is what they wanted - so no fancy supper for us -
Mc Donalds it was!
I knew by surprising the girls, I was taking a BIG RISK
by packing Avery's clothes for her - sure enough - she was NOT HAPPY
with the jammies I packed - even though I packed two for her.
Still crying over the jammies - maybe missing a nap made her extra sensitive.
Back to the hotel and no TV - that meant going to bed early for everyone!
(we did have the ipad to entertain the girls for awhile)
The girls slept great, but were up at 5:30 - eek!
Mom packed Jaarsma for breakfast.
Bumming around the hotel before the pool opened back up at 9 a.m.
Aubrey swan for another hour and a half solid!
(by herself - we weren't going back in)
She lasted all of 5 minutes - we figured.
testing out her basketball skills - hard to do in the water
Homeward in the snow and COLD!
